More Than Just A Tan

Looking for a way to achieve a stunning glow while treating your skin right? A spray tan is no longer just about tanning itself; let’s think of it as an intensive body serum that nourishes and revitalises your skin. Infused with hydrating ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and Niacinamide, this must- try treatment deeply moisturises while giving you the added benefit of a beautiful bronzed finish.

Introduction

Spray tanning has become a popular choice for those looking to achieve a sun-kissed glow without the harmful effects of UV exposure. However, not all spray tans are created equal. Many products now incorporate active ingredients that not only provide a beautiful bronzed finish, but also offer significant benefits to the skin. Here’s a look at some of these key hydrating and cell-loving ingredients, along with their benefits and why many people are now looking at spray tans as a part of their weekly self-care routine and skin care regime.

Skin-Loving Ingredients

One of the standout ingredients in many spray tans is Hyaluronic Acid. Known for its incredible ability to retain moisture, Hyaluronic Acid helps keep the skin hydrated and plump. This is particularly beneficial for those with dry or dehydrated skin, as it can enhance the overall appearance of the tan, ensuring it looks smooth and natural. Additionally, the hydration provided by this ingredient can help prolong the life of the tan, reducing the risk of patchiness as the colour fades.

A personal favourite must-have ingredient is Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, which offers a range of benefits that can enhance your spray tanning experience by improving Skin Barrier Function, aids in reducing redness and inflammation, antioxidant effects, which can help protect your skin from environmental stressors, and help to treat skin concerns or relieve skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. This protection can help maintain the health of your skin, ensuring that your tan looks vibrant and fresh.

Another powerful ingredient often found in spray tans is Aloe Vera. Renowned for its soothing and healing properties, Aloe Vera not only hydrates the skin but also helps to calm any irritation or redness. This makes it an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin. Moreover, Aloe Vera is rich in antioxidants, which can help protect the skin from environmental stressors, further enhancing its health and appearance.

Finally, many spray tans include vitamins like E and C, which are known for their skin-loving properties. Vitamin E is an excellent moisturiser and helps to protect the skin from oxidative stress, while vitamin C aids in collagen production and brightens the complexion. Together, these vitamins work to improve the overall health and appearance of the skin, making it look more radiant and youthful.

Conclusion

In conclusion, opting for a spray tan that features hydrating and cell-loving ingredients can provide more than just a beautiful glow. Ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Aloe Vera, and Vitamins E and C not only enhance the tanning experience, but also contribute to healthier, more radiant skin. So next time you’re considering a spray tan, look for products that prioritise skin health alongside that coveted bronzed finish.

Ask your CSB therapist at your local salon how you can transform your tanning routine into a luxurious treatment that hydrates, protects, and beautifies. Get ready to glow and nourish the body from head to toe just in time for Summer!
